❄️ 96

Tanjiro started performing all of the forms together in a cycle and so does F/N who continuously slicing every whips that she could see. 

Breath, F/N! You're going to die!

"F/N-san!" Tanjiro yelled. "You have to back off, now! Breathe!"

"HAAAAGHH!!!!"

She returned to normal and dropped down to the ground. Worried that she might get hurt, Tanjiro quickly did the forms to prevent him from touching F/N and also giving her time to move away. "Please, F/N-san! Take a rest!"

"STOP JUMPING ALL OVER THE PLACE!!!" Muzan shouted, but Tanjiro didn't listen.

After slightly recovering from the pain in her chest, she attempted to stand up and return to the battle only to feel of being lifted from the ground and was carried. "Who- Onii-san?!" Her eyes widened at the sight of his face, the slashes on his face that involved his eyes made him unrecognizable. His scars opened too and is also bleeding. As much as she wants to stop him, defeating Muzan needs manpower.

"Listen to Tanjiro," he said. "You have to rest for a while. You haven't been breathing for ten minutes."

Ten minutes?

"But I have to--You can't even see!"

"I can manage. Just recover a little. Catch your breathe, this isn't over yet," he said before leaving her there.

She's still breathing heavily and bringing her breathing pace back to normal won't be easy. "Onii-san..." She muttered and watch how he joins the fight with Tanjiro.

"Iguro-san! Your eyes! All because you protected me!"

"Wrong! They got injured a while ago. You never shut up about other people," he responded.

There are more whips that had been flying around the area that they have dodged and it also cause more destruction in the buildings. Tanjiro's worried about his state now that he could not see anything.

"Iguro-san, I'll back you up and fight!"

"My right eye was already weak before, and I was more or less blind in it," he said. "I have no need for your assistance. I have Kabarumaru with me."

The scars Muzan had from Yorichi started appearing too and gave Tanjiro an idea on where he should aim next.

The fight went on and F/N couldn't actually stand anymore. "COME ON!" She screamed in frustration. She kept on attempting to regain her strength or turn into Yoru, but she couldn't. "YORU! COME ON!"

"CAW!!! FORTY MINUTES UNTIL DAWN!!!"

Muzan started running away after hearing that and made Tanjiro nervous. "Iguro-san! He ran!!! Muzan's running away!!!"
